Deeply moving diary of an Uighur mother 🙏 theguardian.com/world/2021/jan…

Invasion day, on which a bunch of Europeans on a ship decided Country was for them to "conquer". As a recent European immigrant, I am baffled this is a day of celebration, just imagine how it must feel for our Aboriginal friends and colleagues... 😠✊

If this is not cool then nothing is frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Open position: PhD student in single cell computational biology (Sydney) We are looking for a passionate PhD candidate to establish a standard model of cell biology based on single cell transcriptomics data. Network analysis + data science 🔎⌨️🎆 Info at fabilab.org/pages/jointhel…

The Australian Research Council (ARC), which funds virtually all non-medical research in Oz, decided that citing a preprint in a funding application disqualifies it. 😓😠 Minister: preprints are essential tools of modern science! Sign here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Please retweet 🙏: Looking for a mixed computational/experimental PhD student in single cell biomedicine on neonatal lung disease and bluebottle jellyfish 🔬⌨️ - lab website fabilab.org - email me CV, motivation letter, and a coding sample. Oh and Nella is here 😍🎆

theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2… yes dengue infects white people too, dear funding agencies. Turns out viruses are less racist than ourselves

We obviously will no longer ask our editors to evaluate submissions for their suitability for eLife prior to peer review, as "suitable for eLife" no longer means anything.

Heyo! We have an open position for a PhD student in computational biology for a super exciting project on "Evolutionary machine learning with cell atlases". Single cell data compression + machine learning models informed by evolution + Python fu🧬💻🔥 fabilab.org

Proud to receive a CZI #SingleCell data insight grant to build light and scalable approximations of cell atlases! Standardized, easy & fast (subsecond) access to atlas data across cell types, organs & organisms, free & open source, to anyone in the 🌎! atlasapprox.readthedocs.io

btw atlasapprox.org is live. Single-cell, whole-body cell atlases across the tree of life at your fingertips. Finally get marker genes for the cell type you dig in 1.2 seconds: "What are 10 markers of AT2 in human lung?" Powered by our awesome atlas approximations.

and also btw our paper in collab with the Einav lab on severe dengue progression in children is on Nature Immunology's website now nature.com/articles/s4159…
